Re psychiatric labels (WDDTY vol 16 no 4), it's long been regarded that doubting your sanity is the first step to losing it. It has also been said that "psychiatrists don't so much minister to the body as destroy the soul", and a religious faith has now been found to help. So perhaps the 'problems' are spiritual in nature.

Psychiatry has been described as 'the black art', so perhaps practising it ought to be certifiable. Seriously, only someone insane would dabble with it - surely. - No name provided
